Convertible top and rear windows suddenly quit working

The switch in the trunk got bumped to manuel position.

Thank you. I can only put top up and down but unfortunately the rocker switches for the rear windows dont work and the motors are good. Do you know where I can purchase 2 used rocker switches for the rear windows of my 98 toyota celica convertible? Thnx! Lynn

Hi Blackdawg, The rocker switches are prone to malfunction but are easily fixed. Buy a tin of aerosol electrical contact cleaner and some emery cloth or a fine brass brush or even wire wool. Take them out and carefully take them apart and first clean all the components using the Brush, emery cloth or wire wool and then give them a good spray with the contact cleaner and re-assemble. I did this a year ago and they are all working perfectly now.

hi, I have a 1997 celica gt convertible. when I purchased the car the seller told me that the top would not open automatically but could still be opened manually. I made sure the switch in the trunk was put to manual but the top only wants to go half way up and gets stuck. also I forced a little too hard and broke the window underneath the felt. is there anything else you need to do to open the top manually??
